"The Hollywood Spotlight Robin Kirby "Robin Revealed""

Welcome to the world of Robin Kirby. On "Robin Revealed" the moving five song offering from this truly gifted acoustic artist, Kirby opens her heart and invites the listener to share her hopes, her dreams, her love, and her pain. She expresseseach and more with a voice that possesses the rarest of qualities: The ability to project both confidence and vulnerability often at the same time. It is that rich passionate delivery that drives songs such as "Here" "I played a Heart" "Denver" and "Over You".Kirby's work is undeniably personal, favoring substance over style and integraty over the standard radio friendly formula. the CD's final song "Thunder Lightning and Rain" is perhaps the most memorable it is an intriguing combination of a bright, upbeat musical groove and a dark here I go again storyline. Again Kirby's genuine vocal performance sells this piece in a way that a lessor voice could not. To it's credit "Robin Revealed" never pretends to be anything it isn't It doesn't try to re-invent the wheel It is simply a girl, a guitar, and her heart and in this case, thats more than enough.

"Festival features home-grown acts"

Robin Kirby: There's a Janis Joplin-esque quality to Kirby's music, but she's no copycat. Her originals — particularly the should-be-a-hit I Played a Heart — are earnest and earthy. Kirby also plays guitar, piano, harmonica and drums. Maybe we'll get a one-man band show during her festival set. Hear more: www.myspace.com/robinrevealed.

The music I write is about life! I like to share my life experiences as well as others, so I write songs that I feel people can relate to from their own life experiences.

I also travaled with the Bob Marley tour in 2007 with a Reggae band called Mundo Tribe. Sharing the stage with some Great Reggae artists: Yellow Man, Riannah, Damien Marley, Inner Circle.
